Non-Surgical Eyelid Closure Device & Method
The patented Tarsus Eyelid Patch is an innovative eyelid closure device and method, which utilizes the strengths of adhesions, structure, curvature and resistance. It is an affordable therapeutic that is transforming cornea care and replacing antiquated eyelid closure devices and techniques.
Using design, simple mechanics and the most advanced materials and adhesives, the Tarsus Eyelid Patch stands alone in effectiveness and patient comfort.
How It Works
When the Tarsus Patch is applied to the closed upper eyelid, its adhesion conforms the patch to the curvatures of the eyeball, eyelid, and under brow, providing form and structure. This allows it to hold the eyelid in the closed position, resisting the retraction of the levator muscle.
In comparison to alternatives, our device simplifies the process of administering medicine or artificial tears by enabling easy opening and closing of the lower eyelid with just one finger while it is applied. After release, the Tarsus Patch maintains the upper eyelid in a closed position, facilitating medication application and aiding post-surgery healing. Studies indicate improved delivery and effectiveness of certain eye medications with eyelid closure. Additionally, it is suitable for sedated surgeries and paralysis patients, and holds potential for use by NASA astronauts in space.
Unique Features:
- The Tarsus Eyelid Patch features an elongated octagon shape with rounded corners and is crafted from breathable medical materials.
- It boasts a gentle yet aggressive adhesive that firmly secures to the delicate skin of the eyelid and can be removed without causing irritation or leaving behind any residue.
- Designed for comfort and effectiveness, it can be worn for extended periods to maintain eyelid closure.
